One of the biggest sellers in our artisan gallery over the past two years were Vivika DeNegre’s Art Quilts. They are beyond beautiful and I am lucky to have two of them in my home – She uses many different color threads, a wide array of fabrics, and her subjects vary from shorebirds to pet portraits to modern designs. Often in the store, people would say “What a beautiful painting!” and I ‘d say “That’s actually a framed quilt!” … Upon closer inspection they’d see it – the quilt details are that refined. My favorites are the nests and pet portraits, which she does on commission – GREAT present for someone with a beloved pet. I have a quilt portrait of Bailey and Rudy in my office, see bottom photo.
Baily & Rudy!!….

I'm envious of ladies that do beautiful and unique work with their hands. Headed over to look at what she has.

Wow! That is amazing! I recently inherited quite a few quilts that my grandmother made. They are so special!

So artistic so beautiful!!
Those are totally works of art. What a gift she has.
Truly works of art, can't wait to go over to her shop! My mother in law keeps a quilt going all the time. She does the traditional geometric patterns that have been around the Ozarks for centuries. I should have learned something watching, but alas that's all I ever did :{
You are a lucky girl to have two of her works in your home!
You are very talented also, Karen! Remember the horse shoes you did? How about a giveaway?! I would be the first to enter!!!!
